Connor's First Halloween

Our sweet little teddy bear

Sweet kisses

I can't believe Connor is 2 months old today! He is such a sweet addition to our family. Time really flies when you are having fun. He's already done a lot in his short little life. So far, he has been to watch a Mississippi State game, tailgated at 3 games with friends in Starkville, relaxed at Orange Beach, and attended two Halloween parties in costume. Connor has been a very busy guy. He goes to the doctor on Thursday for his 2 month checkup.

"I don' wanna be a wion!"

Weston was going to be a lion for Halloween this year...
This is the sequence of events that took place when we tried to get him to put the costume on for pictures. He ran away from us so he could unzip it and tear himself out of it. Meanwhile, he was crying and saying, "I don' wanna be a wion. I don' wike it!" Just look at the tears!!

On October 28, Weston had his 2 year old preschool Halloween party. He didn't eat much lunch that day according to his teachers, but he sure had plenty of room for the cheetos, fruit snacks, and giant pumpkin cookie! He kept referring to his Halloween party favors as "tea party!" when we got home. Weston pushed a chair in the kitchen over to the counter, climbed up in the chair, and attempted to grab the candy and party favors before I beat him to it. He already had plenty of candy and treats that day! He was supposed to wear his Halloween costume (a lion) to school, but he refused to put it on. "I don wike it". So, he resorted to wearing his favorite shirt of this season--a football jersey! He asks to wear it to school often, but this day it doubled as his Halloween costume too. He also asks to wear his brown cowboy boots everywhere he goes now. He has other shoes, but only the boots will suffice. Courtney said Ella came home from school one day saying she wanted some boots like Weston's...so funny how that starts at such a young age.

Will, Weston, & Me at Weston's first rock concert!

Will & I got tickets to see Bon Jovi on October 15th. Since it was an outdoor concert on the beach, we decided to take Weston to his first rock concert. There were 35,000 people in attendance. Not many two year olds can say they have seen Bon Jovi with their parents--or with their grandmother, either! Mimi went with us (because she thinks Bon Jovi is "cute"), while Grandy kept Connor in the condo. Grandy really bonded with Connor that weekend. It was really sweet to see them together. The next day, Connor hung out on the beach for a little while with Weston. Weston even took a two hour nap on the sand. We had so much fun, and I didn't want to come back home. I just want to live at the beach!!
